This 305m box of CAT6 cable is rated to 250MHz and supports Gigabit Ethernet at up to 100 metres, with 10GBASE-T possible on shorter links of around 55 metres.
It has solid conductors, intended for permanent structured cabling punched down onto keystones, sockets and patch panels. It uses an overall foil wrap around the four pairs (F/UTP) to keep outside electrical noise out.
Its LSZH sheath produces minimal smoke and no halogen fumes if it burns, which many commercial buildings require.
The cable carries a CPR (Construction Products Regulation) fire rating of Dca; check the class required for your building before installing.
Plan each permanent link at no more than 90 metres, leaving room for patch leads within the 100 metre Ethernet channel.
